CITY IS CALLED RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATH OF STEVIE JUAREZ, SAYS CLAIM FOR DAMAGES Michael Moore Reporter

➝ Juarez Claim, 9

Barry Holtzclaw

The family of Steven Juarez, who died Feb. 25 during a struggle with Gilroy police officers, has filed a claim for damages with City Hall. The claim was filed on behalf of Juarez’ five sons—three of whom are minors—as well as his wife and mother, by San Jose attorney Alfredo Morales. The claim is likely the first step toward further litigation in Superior Court, as the family is requesting damages in “an amount that would place it within the general jurisdiction of the Superior Court” of California, the claim states. Juarez, known to his family and friends as “Stevie,” died Feb. 25 after Gilroy Police officers attempted to arrest him on the 7400 block of Chestnut Street in Old Gilroy. Police department spokesmen have said up to seven officers attempted

ON THE LOOKOUT Gilroy officers look for ‘active shooter’ in training exercise at Gilroy Gardens.

Training stirs Gardens GILROY PD STAGES ‘ACTIVE SHOOTER’ EXERCISES AT EMPTY GILROY GARDENS Michael Moore Reporter

On receiving reports of shots fired and several people injured at Gilroy Gardens on Highway 152, every available Gilroy police officer starts to arrive at the scene,

followed by firefighters and paramedics. As the watch commanders and battalion chiefs set up their central command post in Parking Lot A, the first wave of officers tactically yet briskly runs into the family amusement park, guns drawn, with “a mission to eliminate the threat.” This was the scenario at an Aug. 23 “active shooter” training exercise organized by Gilroy police at the west Gilroy theme park. The police radio chatter sounded real: “One suspect

down, detaining now…multiple injuries…reports of possible second shooter.” Officers, using paint pellets as ammo, “shot” a suspect armed with a gun—a stuffed, dressed mannequin—that had been standing over the bodies of “victims” (also stuffed mannequins). Unsure if there were additional shooters in the park, another wave of armed officers entered the “warm zone” to secure the area surrounding the wounded, so helmeted paramedics could

follow and safely treat anyone still alive. Gilroy Police Sgt. Geoff Guerin said that after the victims are stabilized or carried away from immediate danger, police can begin to blanket the park and its surroundings, searching the grid to locate the other suspect or confirm there was only one shooter. “The majority of these cases are single-shooter,” said Gilroy Police Sgt. Lamonte Toney, ➝ Active Shooter, 11

Union boss: ‘Strike is not inevitable’ By Scott Forstner Reporter

Gilroy teachers are holding out hope that they won’t strike, that a deal can get done by Sept. 14, when union and district negotiators are scheduled to hear the results of a fact-finding report. “A strike is not inevitable,” Gilroy Teachers Association

President Jonathan Bass said this week. “Whether a strike occurs depends on whether an agreement can be reached prior to or during the fact-finding hearing.” However, with a possible teacher strike looming, Gilroy Unified School District leadership is taking precautions, beginning the recruitment process for 250 substitute teachers to fill in for GTA teachers; and financing the production of an informational video on what to expect during a teacher strike.

“GUSD’s preparations simply mean GUSD is taking GTA’s strike threat seriously,” said Bass, whose members voted in June to authorize a strike if their demands are not met. “GTA is disappointed at the energy and financial resources that GUSD is pouring into hitting back against a possible strike. GTA would prefer that GUSD’s effort focus on making a fair contract offer.” GTA members, among the lowest paid in Santa Clara County school districts, have

been working without a contract since the previous three-year deal expired in June 2017. The two sides remain far apart, with the union requesting a 6 percent pay hike and 5 percent boost in the district’s health care contribution, and the district standing pat at a 2 percent pay raise and no additional healthcare contribution. In the interim, the district has posted a need for “special ➝ Strike, 4

Water district, cities tackle homelessness DISTRICT SAYS IT SPENT $1.4M ON 571 CLEANUP PROJECTS AT CREEKSIDE CAMPS IN 2018 Jaqueline McCool Reporter

Jaqueline McCool

A report on homelessness in Gilroy this month painted a bleak picture of daily struggles to protect a Gilroy watershed that disrupts and disperses tent communities of homeless people. At a joint meeting Aug. 21 of the Santa Clara Valley Water District Board of Directors and representatives of the cities of Morgan Hill and Gilroy, district staff reported that in the first seven months of 2018 there were 571 homeless camps cleaned up along county creeks, far surpassing the yearly average of 400. The staff reported that water district ratepayers had funded $1.4 million for clean-ups of homeless encampments this year, mostly along two streams, the Guadalupe River in San Jose and Llagas Creek in Gilroy. The district had authorized funds for just 52 clean-ups per year. The report detailed the increasing number of clean-ups the water district has been conducting on homeless encampments that exist on district property. The clean-ups, take place throughout the water district but are most frequent in Gilroy and San Jose, said district staff at the joint meeting. The report detailed ongoing efforts to form partnerships with other agencies that work with the county’s homeless. This included $15,000 in grant funding awarded to the Gilroy Compassion

Center by the district. The grant for the center is meant “to provide yearround outreach to homeless individuals living at target hot spots along South County Creeks. The outreach teams will provide information, encouragement and incentives for homeless individuals to keep toxic materials, garbage and waste out of the waterways.” During a recent cleanup operation along Llagas Creek, a water district crew, accompanied by a large waste truck, removed piles of garbage, waste, trash and personal belongings left near the creek, which parallels Holsclaw Road east of Gilroy and is part of the Pajaro Valley watershed. The compassion center has been critical of the water district’s clean-ups. The center’s board chairwoman Jan Bernstein Chargin said the center applied for the grant and anticipates beginning a program this fall. Chargin says what leads to the homeless encampments is simple—a lack of housing for those in need. “The big problem is there are human beings that don’t have a place to go.” She said the big question now is, “What are the harm reduction activities we can do?” Chargin said she hears from the community that they want to be involved in the clean-up efforts. For the water district, however, it’s a matter of keeping the streams clean and responding to residential phone calls about homeless people on water district property. Sue Tippets of the district presented the Aug. 23 report and said, “It’s challenging to decrease encampments when homelessness is on the rise.”

WEEKEND CLEAN-UP Water district workers and contractors cleaning under

an overpass at Rodgers Lane and 6th Street in Gilroy.

As for why most of the clean-ups are taking place in San Jose and Gilroy, Tippets said, “those happen to be the locations where most of the encampments are located.” When conducting the clean-ups, the water district posts notices 72 hours in advance in the sites. Depending on the time allotted, the district may come back the next day to ensure that everyone has moved. Carlos Tovar is in charge of all of the clean-ups. He said the district and the workers it contracts look through every item that’s thrown away to ensure no personal belongings are present. However, Chagrin said some of her clients have told her their belongings have been swept up during the clean-ups. Chargin said at the joint meeting that the people living in the encampments often did not move their things in time because they’re not physically capable. She said many suffer from physical disabilities or chronic diseases that stop them from moving their things before the 72 hours. The definition of a personal belonging that can

be stored is narrow, Tovar said. Blankets, tarps and tents, for example, don’t count and are tossed. Tovar said if clothes were clean in a suitcase, they would be stored or left at the end of the clean-up site to be claimed. Bikes that are in a usable condition are also stored, but if they’re missing chains or wheels they’re thrown out. The Gilroy police officers that accompanied Tovar and his team at the Aug. 24 clean-up said the items taken and stored are rarely reclaimed. At the meeting the water district reported programs it had piloted or was considering to mitigate the effects of the encampments aside from the clean-ups. Tippets said the district had tried putting dumpsters near some encampment sites, but that program was deemed unsuccessful. Chargin disagreed. She said the excitement among her clients over the new trash cans was palpable. Chargin said those living at the encampments were happy to have the trash cans and told her they would use them. Chargin and the center

also hoped to get portable toilets in certain areas of the encampments, but Tovar said that wasn’t possible. He said if the toilet were to flip over, the chemicals inside would contaminate the water. At the meeting Gilroy City Councilmember Dion Bracco, said the cleanups didn’t seem to be alleviating the problem and advocated for a stricter approach to dealing with the encampments. Renee Spring, a councilmember from Morgan Hill, said at the meeting, “At the end of the day we’re talking about human beings today.” He advocated for looking for alternatives to the clean-ups or for additional mitigation measures to implement. Tovar said he has seen the number of encampments in Morgan Hill increase in recent months as well as surrounding water district properties throughout the Bay Area. As to mitigation, Chargin said the center’s upcoming program will be focusing on “cleaning and education.” The water district was set to adopt a recommendation

on the encampments at an Aug. 28 board meeting. The first recommendation was to allocate 90 percent of revenues from renting district-owned properties to the clean-ups. The second was to ask the board chair to write letters to city mayors and the chair of the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. The letters would ask for “increased police and security support for homeless encampment cleanups and to patrol waterways to prevent re-encampments.” Gilroy already provides police protection with the district clean-ups. Marty Grimes, a district spokesman, said the police presence was necessary. “It’s getting really dangerous out there.” Typically there are two officers present at the Gilroy clean-ups who go first when entering encampment areas before the crew arrives. At the joint meeting, Gilroy City Administrator Gabe Gonzalez said the city had spent $32,000 in overtime this year for police officers to accompany water district crews to the clean-ups.

All eyes on art Kids eager to get their hands dirty gathered in the paseo near the Gilroy Library for its Kids Discover Arts event on Saturday, Aug. 25. The event was well-attended and offered a variety of projects, including chalk designs, paper making, drawing, watercolor painting and other creative activities led by local artists.

DEBIT

By Jaqueline McCool Reporter

In response to growing concerns about speeding and other traffic dangers in neighborhoods, the Gilroy City Council heard a plan for a new Neighborhood Traffic Management program Aug. 27. The plan had originally been presented at a May 21 meeting, but adjustments were made following council’s request to expand on the document. Public Works Director Girum Awoke said the updated report allowed for “a more collaborative discussion.” The program outlines two sets of measures that can be implemented to “calm” traffic on residential Gilroy streets, according to city traffic engineers. The plan states the reason to use trafficcalming measures is to “alter a driver’s behavior, either by forcing a vehicle to slow or to use an alternative route, through use of engineering solutions and the installation of physical device.” The first phase of calming measures includes traffic safety campaigns, speed monitors, police enforcement, some signage and changes in pavement striping. Stop signs are not included in the calming measures. Awoke said this is because stop signs are considered a

“volume control device” as opposed to a “calming” device. He said placing stop signs where they aren’t necessary can actually cause an increase in accidents if residents do not abide by the signs and instead speed through. “If they aren’t wanted, stop signs could actually create the reverse problem,” said Awoke. Awoke’s department has recommended one stop sign change: The council in October will be asked to make the busy intersection of Eigelberry and Sixth streets a four-way stop. The second phase of the program includes traffic-calming measures that, according to the draft plan, “can be very controversial.” These include speed cushions, roundabouts, “chokers” and raised intersections. Per the plan,

neighborhoods must attempt to reduce traffic using phase one techniques before any phase two solutions can be explored. Phase two solutions are reserved for residential streets where nothing else has worked and something must be done to ease traffic. There are many streets that are not eligible for any kind of phase two construction. These include streets used as bus or routes, or streets designated as arterials in the city’s general plan. The plan states that a traffic-calming program requires ongoing community support in order to be successful, and that developing a program early allows residents “to become actively involved in the improvement process.”

Gilroy readies for strike with substitutes, video Strike, 1 Circumstance Substitute Classroom Teacher” on the teacher recruiter website edjoin.org. The posting calls for 250 openings to be filled, with pay between $500$600 per day. Additionally, the GUSD Board of Trustees unanimously agreed to spend $4,400 to make a film entitled “Strike FAQ” in order to “address questions that may or may not be at the forefront of the minds of GUSD parents and teachers.” (Vote was 6-0, with Board President

Linda Piceno was absent from meeting.) The board approved the expenditure, requested by district staff, at the Aug. 23 meeting. At that time, Bass stated the strike could cost the district nearly $200,000 per day. Regardless, GUSD hired Gilroy-based “152 West Productions” to produce the film. The contract includes $500 each for two actors and $3,900 for production. According to the Aug. 23 agenda item, listed in the consent calendar, “two local and wellestablished public speakers

in the Gilroy community” will read from a script. “The focus of the piece is to address the concerns of the parents regarding their children if a strike does occur,” according to the Aug. 15 proposal. “The information will be relayed by two actors with accompanying motion graphics for maximum impact. The length of the video will be 3-5 minutes.” The production will take one half-day at a location to be determined. It will be posted on the district website and youtube. com, according to the staff report.

Public-private solutions available for homeless

I

t takes three things for a community to end homelessness: political will, supportive policies and money. Most communities have one or two of these ingredients, but harnessing all three at the same time has proven hard. As a result, more than 100,000 California residents are homeless today—about a fifth of the total homeless population in the United States. Here in Santa Clara County, we have approximately 7,400 people without a home. Of these, 74 percent are unsheltered and 2,000 are chronically homeless, which means they’ve been homeless for one year or more. The county has the third-highest rate of chronic homelessness in the U.S. Between 2011 and 2016, there were 476 homeless deaths in Santa Clara County. Our county government has been spending $520 million per year on homelessness. Much of the cost comes from unhoused residents accessing emergency rooms, hospitals, jails and other public systems not designed to meet their needs. The 10 percent of un-housed residents who use the most services end up costing the county $62,000 every year they are living on the streets. For years, a failing system had resulted in wasted resources and more people on the streets. As in many California communities, it became increasingly clear that we were spending our time managing homelessness instead of ending it. Yet, despite this daunting challenge, over the past five years, the tide finally seems to be turning. We have an engaged local government, tech stepping up to make significant commitments, and residents voting for meaningful change and resources. In 2014, more than 200 stakeholders from public, private and non-profit sectors adopted the Community Plan to End Homelessness in Santa Clara County, creating a roadmap to ending homelessness in the region. We forged

a true public-private partnership, which has required that each partner contribute substantially and meaningfully to the overarching goal. Our leaders stepped up. The county formed the Office of Supportive Housing and put an unprecedented and successful $950 million affordable housing bond on the 2016 ballot. Cities like San Jose did their part, too, dedicating resources and approving new projects. Then, this spring, Cisco made a $50 million grant to Destination: Home, a public-private partnership that works to end homelessness in Santa Clara County, and where I serve as CEO. The grant was the largest tech contribution to homelessness ever. Working together, our goal has been to make homelessness rare, brief and non-recurring. Our two aims are to increase the supply of housing affordable to our most vulnerable residents, and focus on permanent housing, rapid re-housing and homelessness prevention. The outcome of this collective effort has been remarkable. Prior to 2013, there had only ever been 348 apartments dedicated specifically for homeless residents and families in Santa Clara County. Today, there are more than 1,000 new homes being constructed. Hundreds of apartments, with services fully funded, are set to open in the coming months. In the last three years, 5,124 men, women and children have been permanently housed over—and 94 percent of them are still housed today. While we still have a long way to go, the path is clear. Homelessness cannot be solved without a committed strategy led by a cross section of community leaders. Without this, the effort will not be sustained. We absolutely can eradicate homelessness—but it’s up to us, because there is no cavalry coming. We must all work together to help our un-housed neighbors, because no one should have to sleep outside. Jennifer Loving is the CEO of Destination: Home, a public-private partnership working to

To the Editor, We should consider paying our mayor $80,000 salary plus benefits. This is a small amount compared to what other public employees are paid. Our city is way generous. Gilroy is a diverse city of 50,000 Gilroyans made up of Silicon Valley professionals, blue collar workers, agricultural laborers and a mostly commuter workforce. Our city is experiencing tremendous growth and expansion. We do have a city administrator who reports to our City Council. Our City Council is at best inexperienced in managing the city in the right way since the council is made up of part-timers. Also, the council would benefit from having a CEO/mayor that is on fulltime to manage the city administrator and employees. We recently approved a tax-funded bond for school investments to improve infrastructure; however, the monies are also being funneled toward superintendent and school executive pay raises,some as high as $30,000 more for public executives, which is what some blue collar workers earn. Our Gilroy High School principal is paid $180,000 salary and benefits, while Superintendent Deborah Flores earns nearly $240,000 salary and benefits. Gilroy is a generous city with huge growth on the horizon. I believe we should pay our mayor to be CEO and grow the city in the right way. Currently we have to manage retirement pay to our public servants who retire on $100,000-plus salaries and receive health pay as well. Firefighters and police work many hours of overtime to increase their retirement pay. The chief of police and chief of firefighters do nothing to keep our budget in balance and allow the huge overtime. After the public employees have reached six figures in income, they are allowed to claim disability and retire with a fat check. We need a mayor with a salary to keep everything in balance. Our mayor has been weak on discussing this retirement abuse. Flores received three huge pay raises in three years and only manages a few staff and is responsible for a small number of students, while the mayor is responsible for 50,000-plus Gilroyans. Also, teachers’ pay is pedestrian at most compared to city employees. Our city employees are paid huge salaries plus benefits for such a small city. I believe our mayor knows how to run a city and has checks and balances with a few other council members who understand fiscal policy. Our school board is lost, but our council at least has two or three good members who are the conscience of our city. Arnold Flores From Nextdoor

Manteca’s gain is Gilroy’s loss To the Editor, I live off Hecker Pass and while my first choice is to not have any development—residential, commercial or industrial—encroaching this pristine area viewed by travelers approaching our city from the west, I also know the importance of having great revenue-generating projects. Great Wolf Lodge would have been one of these few opportunities a city is offered. This positive enhancement to our city would have created 600 jobs, while generating a continuous revenue flow of visitors spending on food, entertainment and retail. Consider additional hotels and businesses that would follow after seeing the draw for this park, resulting in the need for more employment. We won’t often see many family-friendly, upscale projects with this many positive outcomes. I hope Heartland Estate residents, fighting every development in this westernmost part of Gilroy, will realize the importance of sales tax, transit-occupancy tax and benefits to locals. Would you prefer an increase in taxes to cover additional services needed for our city? Perhaps you’d like to have parking meters all over town? Don't think property taxes help out much because the state takes it, distributes it, then returns very little to the city. I much prefer having others’ money flow into city coffers and surrender my “not in my backyard” perspective. We have to make Gilroy a destination and that includes providing the amenities that will attract visitors to Gilroy. After attending the Economic Development Study on Aug. 13, I encourage our mayor and City Council to have a “Can Do" attitude and “Be Ready” for revenue-generating projects, while considering community impacts, when approached by developers.

Community awaits autopsy report Juarez Claim, 1

File Photo

Police department spokesmen have said up to seven officers attempted various force methods— including a Taser and carotid restraint hold—to detain Juarez after they responded to reports that a man on foot was causing a disturbance in the neighborhood. Juarez allegedly ran the opposite way through residential yards and onto rooftops when he saw officers approach him that evening, and resisted arrest when the officers caught up with him, police have said. During the struggle with officers, Juarez fell into “medical distress,” police said. Paramedics arrived and transported him to a San Jose hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Gilroy police have declined to release the officers’ body camera and patrol car camera footage from the incident. They have also declined to release the names of the officers or any other details of their response to the disturbance complaint. The Juarez family’s claim for damages, filed Aug. 17 at City Hall, adds that officers “forced him to the ground and physically beat Mr. Juarez with their hands, fists, feet and batons.” The claim adds the officers “unlawfully detained” Juarez just before his death Feb. 25, and “employed unreasonable, unnecessary and excessive force” on him. The officers allegedly detained Juarez with

GRIEVING MOM Stevie Juarez’ mother, Martha Solis is flanked by two of her sons, at March rally in downtown Gilroy, pleading for justice for her son. “deliberate indifference to constitutional rights,” according to the claim. A resident of Chestnut Street is listed on the claim as a witness to Juarez’ death. In addition to the arresting officers, the family also blames the City of Gilroy, Chief of Police Scot Smithee and the Gilroy Police Department which “negligently hired, trained and supervised its officers…The training received effectively encouraged officers to detain and arrest persons without reasonable suspicion and employ unnecessary, unreasonable and

excessive force on persons,” the claim reads. “Mr. Juarez did not pose an immediate threat of death or serious bodily injury to anyone at the time he was subdued,” the claim adds. The family is seeking wrongful death, survival and general damages for Juarez’ sons, wife and mother. The claim also seeks funeral and burial expenses, punitive damages, attorney fees and loss of financial support damages. The claim does not offer specific evidence of the officers’ conduct or documentation of exactly

how Juarez died Feb. 25. The Santa Clara County Coroner’s Office has not released its report on Juarez’ death to his family, according to Rebeca Armendariz, a cousin of Juarez and a Gilroy activist. The report, when complete and released to the public, may offer details on the cause and manner of Juarez’ death. The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office is leading an investigation of the Gilroy Police response to the Feb. 25 incident, in an effort to determine if the officers acted lawfully. The D.A.’s investigation

depends largely on the coroner’s findings, as well as any statements and evidence—including camera footage—provided by officers and witnesses. On Aug. 23, D.A.’s office spokeswoman Cynthia Sumida said the Juarez death incident is still under investigation. Gilroy Police have alleged that after Juarez walked or ran away from them when they responded to Chestnut Street the night of Feb. 25, he jumped over residential fences and onto rooftops in the neighborhood. At some point during the foot chase, Juarez appeared to

have fallen from a roof, according to police. Police have declined to offer more details of the incident, citing the ongoing nature of the investigation. The City of Gilroy has 45 days to respond to the Juarez claim from the date it was filed. If the city rejects the claim, the family could proceed with litigation by filing a lawsuit in Santa Clara County Superior Court. Gilroy Human Resources Director and Risk Manager LeeAnn McPhillips said the Juarez family’s claim is “under review.”

Police, fire practice for ‘worst case’ Active Shooter, 1 officers at the scene have to make sure the threat is over. This multi-phase, multi-agency response to a mass-shooting incident is spelled out in the Santa Clara County Active Shooter Protocol for law enforcement agencies, said Lamonte, a training officer for Gilroy Police Department and coordinator of the Aug. 23 drill. Lamonte said the protocol is much different from how law enforcement in the U.S. used to react to active shooter incidents less than 20 years ago, when the first responding officers rarely entered the danger zone before the SWAT team arrived. And that could be a few hours, with victims bleeding out and the suspect or suspects still a threat, Lamonte explained. “At Sandy Hook, victims died because medical

personnel couldn’t get in there fast enough,” Lamonte said, referring to the elementary school shooting in Connecticut in 2012. Now, police departments commonly train all of their officers—not just SWAT team members—to respond quickly to all aspects of an active shooter incident. They also train to work more closely with fire and emergency medical responders. At the Aug. 23 exercise, police and fire officers set up a joint command post in the Gilroy Gardens parking lot by backing two SUVs up to each other. The officers stood between the vehicles writing notes on a dry-erase board and studying maps of the park while giving instructions through the radio. “It’s important to practice working together, back-to-back like this,” Toney said.

More than 20 Gilroy Police officers participated in the Aug. 23 scenario, along with a similar number of firefighters and paramedics from Gilroy Fire and CalFire. The other half of the Gilroy Police Department conducted a similar active-shooter exercise July 23 at Gilroy High School, Lamonte said. That drill included about 40 student volunteers serving as role players. The department aims to conduct such drills for all officers every other year, Lamonte said. No active-shooter incidents have occurred in Gilroy in recent memory, but there’s no guarantee that won’t remain the case. Guerin, a commander of the Aug. 23 scenario, said, “It’s one of those things you think is never going to happen in your community, but you never know.”

It’s one of those things you think is never going to happen in your community, but you never know. —GILROY POLICE SGT. GEOFF GUERIN

NOTICE OF EVIDENTIARY HEARING REGARDING PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S REQUEST TO INCREASE RATES FOR THE GAS TRANSMISSION AND STORAGE APPLICATION (A.17-11-009) Scheduled September 17–October 9, 2018 at 9:00 a.m. at the address below: California Public Utilities Commission Courtroom State Office Building 505 Van Ness Avenue San Francisco, CA 94102 SUMMARY This Evidentiary Hearing has been scheduled by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to review PG&E’s Gas Transmission and Storage (GT&S) application filed with the CPUC on November 17, 2017. The application includes the following: • Costs to comply with new regulatory requirements for the safety of gas transmission and storage facilities • Infrastructure investments to ensure gas transmission pipelines and storage facilities continue to operate safely and reliably • Retirement of two gas storage fields in order to reduce costs to customers in the long term, reduce risk and streamline operations Related to the programs above, PG&E is requesting a total increase of $1.237 billion to be collected in rates from customers during the period 2019–2021. This increase has been reduced from PG&E’s November 2017 application by $80 million to reflect the benefits of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. BACKGROUND The GT&S application is submitted approximately every three years by PG&E and the scope includes gas transmission and gas storage facilities. In this application, PG&E forecasts the costs necessary to operate these facilities in a safe and reliable manner. This application also proposes how the costs will be assigned to each customer class. This application covers the years 2019–2021. In addition, PG&E forecasted the costs necessary for 2022 should the CPUC or stakeholders wish to consider extending the case into a fourth year. HOW WILL PG&E’S APPLICATION AFFECT ME? For the years covered in this application, PG&E is requesting increases of $263 million in 2019, $130 million in 2020 and $188 million in 2021. If approved, these changes would be effective beginning January 1, 2019. Detailed rate information was included in the original notice sent to customers when the application was submitted in 2017. EVIDENTIARY HEARING At this hearing, the assigned Administrative Law Judge (Judge) will receive testimonies from PG&E, consumer advocacy groups and other parties to this proceeding. These hearings are open to the public, but only those who are parties to the proceeding may present evidence or testimony and be subject to cross-examination. The hearings and documents submitted during this proceeding will become part of the formal record the Judge will rely upon in writing a proposed decision to present to the Commissioners for their consideration. After considering all proposals and evidence presented during the formal hearing process, the assigned Judge will issue a proposed decision which may adopt, modify or deny PG&E’s proposal. Any of the five CPUC Commissioners may also sponsor an alternate decision. The proposed decision and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the Commissioners at a scheduled CPUC Voting Meeting. Please note: The CPUC’s Courtroom is wheelchair accessible. If you wish to attend and need specialized accommodations, please contact the Public Advisor’s Office (PAO) at least five business days prior to the hearing date. Any changes to the dates, times and locations of the hearings will be posted to the CPUC’s Daily Calendar.

educational nonprofit; and Anisha Munshi, 52, a former GUSD administrator and teacher. “I am confident in the progress that is being made with our caring and dedicated staff and with the caliber of the highly qualified candidates who have stepped up to serve on the board of education,” Rosso said. “For this

reason, I have decided it is time to step down to focus on other important personal matters.”’ Two other incumbents who did not seek re-election in November were Patricia Midtgaard and Heather Bass. Other GUSD board members whose terms are not up until 2020 are James Pace, BC Doyle and Mark Good.

Board President Linda Piceno will join Enrique Diaz, Tuyen Fiack and Anisha Munshi, on the GUSD Board of Trustees.

T.D. on point MAKING GAINS Christopher High senior running back Tyler Davis busts off a big gain in the Cougars’ 17-14 season-opening win over Monte Vista

Christian. The Cougars won a fierce defensive battle as neither offense could muster a sustained attack. Christopher hosts Live Oak in Week 2 action.

COUGARS’ TYLER DAVIS GAINS KEY YARDS IN A TOUGH WIN AGAINST MVC bryce stoepfel Staff Reporter

Robert Eliason

Last Friday night Tyler Davis was what Christopher High coach Tim Pierleoni described as a “rolling razorblade.” The defense was deadly, as it piled up sacks. But it came down to a kick in the end. With 37 seconds to go, senior placekicker Julian Rasuli converted a 35-yard game winning field goal to give the Cougars a 17-14 win against Monte Vista Christian in Watsonville. It was the first win in the first game of the new season, and it didn’t come easy. And it won’t get any easier. “That’s a good football team; they’re well coached,” Pierleoni said. “We made many mistakes. You could call it first game jitters, but I say it’s kids making too many mistakes. We coach too hard to see kids make mistakes like that. We all need to get better.” Tyler Davis piled up yards, especially in the third quarter. After a long drive that started at the Cougars’ 12-yard line, Davis went to work. He bounced through the outside, burst through the middle, and rattled off rushes of 30, 20, and 15 yards. Ultimately, it paid off with a 6-yard rushing touchdown which gave Christopher a 14-7 lead. “I just told my linemen, ‘just get in front of them,’” Tyler Davis said. “Every defense has a weakness, and I just try to get in my rhythm and find it. They would bait one way, and I would go another. Look where they’re not.” The game-winner was Rasuli’s first, and it’s something he’s unlikely ever to forget. After the game, though, a few miscues

on defense still haunted him. “I’m a little disappointed in myself because I missed a few times on defense,” Rasuli said. “I guess the goal makes up for it. It was special. I just did it for my team and coaches. I was a little shaky at first, but I knew I’d make it at the end.” On the next possession, Christian Davis, Tyler’s twin brother, was the last man standing between a lead and a tie game. From behind its 20-yard line MVC senior running back Nick Fischer bullied his way through the line, then the Christopher secondary, deflecting defenders. Only a diving Christian Davis prevented a long touchdown. But two Christopher sacks killed what had been a promising drive for the Mustangs. “I knew we needed to get him,” Christian Davis said. “If he scored, we would have lost our momentum. We just had to force them to pass; they weren’t comfortable passing. You got to hit them hard, make them scared.” MVC, with its new coach Jubenal Rodriguez, the former head man at Gilroy High School, avenged the missed opportunity midway through the fourth quarter. After a three-and-out Cougars possession and a short punt, MVC took advantage of a short field. A 5-yard touchdown rush by Nick Fischer was set up by a 15-yard pass from junior quarterback Nathan Renglli to senior running back Daniel Brierley knotted the game at 14-14 Both teams need to shake off the rust in the first half. The season will only get harder for Christopher, especially given their new tougher division. If they’re going to continue to win, Christopher must cut back on penalties and turnovers. It helps to play good defense. “The defense did a great job, the coaches coached them up

OFFENSE IMPROVING Jason Scirigione goes in motion during last Friday’s contest at MVC. Christopher High won a defensive contest and hosts Live Oak on Friday. The teams went to double overtime last season. and the kids played really hard,” Pierleoni said. “The defensive line did a great job at overpowering their line. We also brought some pressure on them when we thought they were going to throw. They knew what they needed to do tonight and our defensive coordinator Chris Vanni did an excellent job scheming all week long.” Christopher got on the board first following a long drive early in the second quarter. Senior quarterback Ben Sanford connected with Tyler Davis for a 20-yard catch and run, and a few snaps later Sanford dropped a12-yard dime into senior wide receiver Joseph

Cupp’s hands for a 7-0 lead. Sanford was not as crisp on the next possession. The Cougars looked to be in business following a 15 and 22 yard rushes by Davis. After driving the ball past midfield, Sanford bought time with his feet on a second and 10, but a long pass missed the mark, and MVC senior defensive back Scott Tinsley picked off the pass. “We made a lot of mistakes, and I need to do a better job protecting the ball,” Sanford said. “They were a tough team; they stuffed us in a lot of situations. They were talking and really got in our heads I think. It made us a little nervous.” The ensuing Mustangs drive

seemed to stall after Onyx Smith disrupted a pass, then collected a sack. On a long fourth down, junior Nathan Renggli sidestepped a defender and heaved the ball towards the end zone. The desperation pass met with the outstretched hands of senior wide receiver Nick Bautista for a game-tying touchdown after a successful extra point. Sanford threw his second interception in the half after a misdirected sidearm throw was picked off by MVC senior Jason Bettencourt. Christopher High hosts Live Oak on Friday in Week 2 action. The Acorns are coming off a 38-34 win over Alsial of the Pacific Coast League.

COLLEGE NEWS

Leifheit earns a top college honor FORMER GAVILAN COLLEGE AND SAN BENITO STANDOUT EARNS AWARD emanuel lee Sports Editor

“The indoor game is great because you can jump higher and hit harder, and

Leifheit couldn’t help but think her career might have been over. “The second time it happened, I was just jogging back (to the endline) to serve,” she said. “I knew immediately what happened, and you almost get it in your head that this is it and it’s over.” However, Leifheit’s resiliency proved decisive. After the initial shock of suffering a second dislocation in as many years, Leifheit attacked the rehab process in the same manner in which she played volleyball—all out. “I just knew I had to stick with rehab and get back in gear because I had to play in my senior year,” she said. “There was no way I was not going to play. I wouldn’t let it stop my journey.” Leifheit credited John Ceglia—the renowned physical therapist in Hollister—and his team at Focus Sports Therapy for getting her back on track. “They were the bomb,” she said. “They really helped with my knee and allowed me to get back on the court my senior year and play.” For now, Leifheit’s college career is over. Leifheit had some scholarship offers; however, the chance to attend UC Santa Barbara was too good to pass up. Leifheit will play on a club team there, and enjoy a little more downtime now that she won’t have to balance school and sports.

GETTING IT DONE Haley Leifheit earns the Gavilan

College Student Athlete of the Year Award and is flanked by Kevin Kramer, Kathleen Rose and Ron Hannon.

Love of game

it’s a little more intense in that way,” she said. “But I really like the beach and prefer it a little more because you’re more involved in every play. It’s only you and your partner, and it comes down to communication. Every little thing you do affects the play on the court.” Gavilan volleyball coach Kevin Kramer realizes how fortunate he is to have athletes like Leifheit come into the program. “She’s the type of student-athlete you hope comes into the program, and we were lucky enough to have her a couple of years,” Kramer said. “I’m sad that she’s gone, but was super stoked to see it was Haley who won it. She’s so deserving of it from an athletic and academic standpoint. It’s the kids like Haley who have made us so successful over the years, kids like Erica Chapa, Emily Burley, Tessa Fischer. Kids who are extremely hard working and didn’t need to go to the community college route, but continued to pursued the opportunity to play. The fact that we get these kids to trust in the process and be a part of their journey and help them along is great.” Only Leifheit truly understands how far she’s come. Leifheit suffered a dislocated right knee in her sophomore season at San Benito High, then dislocated the same knee during her junior year. After the second dislocation,

As Haley Leifheit looked out in the crowd and saw her loved ones, she couldn’t help but well up with tears. Leifheit, who was in Morgan Hill on Aug. 14 to accept the Gavilan College Student Athlete of the Year award, reflected on the long journey that got her to this point. “I went up there to give a speech and basically got teary-eyed and choked up,” said Leifheit, a former San Benito High standout. “It was cool to be standing there and looking out at all the people who helped me all the way through my Gavilan College experience.” The award goes to the student-athlete who excelled in academic achievement, leadership, athletic contributions and involvement in the community. Leifheit, who will be transferring to UC Santa Barbara for the 2018 fall semester, certainly graded high in all those areas. In addition to being a beach volleyball and indoor volleyball standout, Leifheit earned a 3.98 GPA last year and has served as an assistant coach on the Rush Volleyball Club. On the beach, Leifheit teamed

with Mikeila Banda to form Gavilan’s top pair. The duo advanced to the California Community College NorCal Pairs Championship. Leifheit was equally spectacular indoors playing the right side, helping lead the Rams to backto-back Coast Conference championships while posting a team-high 163 kills. The most impressive part? Leifheit did this while playing a new position after playing middle blocker the previous season. “It was a nice change but also a challenging one,” she said. “I liked hitting from the right side and the different pace of the position. The sets are a lot lower when you’re the middle, so you have to be quicker. So the transition was rough at first, but I had some great setters in Christa Arroyo and Greyson Gilroy, who gave me awesome sets and eased my transition.” Leifheit became the fourth women’s indoor volleyball player to win Gavilan’s top student-athlete honor, which started in 2008. Erica Chapa and Emily Burley-Tonascia, a pair of former Balers standout, and Tessa Fischer were the others. Leifheit enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor game equally, as there are unique differences in the sports.

GOING ALL OUT Haley Leifheit and Mikeila Banda

formed the Rams’ top beach pair team last season.

“Although I do love volleyball, I wanted to not take it as seriously and see what it was like not being a student-athlete for

a change,” she said. “Not that I didn’t love it, but I wanted to see what else was out there and maybe focus on other things.”

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 2802832 or visit this Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the file number assigned to this case 18-51005. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

907 GIL - Petition to Admin E NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF Ariele M. Combs CASE NO. 18PR183920 FILED: 07-05-2018. To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Ariele M. Combs. A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Julie L. Barberi in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara. The PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that: Julie L. Barberi be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 09-17-2018 Time: 9:00am Dept: 12, Superior Court of California County of Santa Clara, 191 N. First Street, San Jose, California, 95113. IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk. Attorney for petitioner: Juliette T. Robertson of Robertson Law Group, 458 McBean Park Drive, Lincoln, CA 95648, 916.434.2550.

BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that t he lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorders office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed or trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and t o the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 844-477-7869, or visit this internet Web site www. stoxposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case T.S.# 82967. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
